Who is a participant?

A participant is a user engaging meaningfully with Eventbot

There is a limit of participants for a given month (depending on the plan). Each month the participants can change (different humans), but the count will be an aggregate across all your channels, that month.  

A user is counted as a participant for that month if they do any of the following actions: 

- RSVP to an event

- Invites others to an event

- Edit an event

- Create an event 

- Removing an event from a channel

- Restore an event to a channel

Seeing an event, checking it's details, or getting invited does NOT count as a participant.

When does the count of participants reset?

We reset the count on the 1st of every month. As an example, if your team has 19 participants on January 31st, you'll start fresh on February 1st with zero participants. 

What happens when the limit of participants has been met? 

Once your workspace hits the participant limit for the month, your team can still use Eventbot. However, NEW users will not be able to create, edit, or remove events. They will also not be able to RSVP to events or invite others. If you hit the participant limit, we encourage you to consider one of our paid plans. 

What happens if a participant leaves the workspace?

Slack does not alert Eventbot when a user leaves, so we must count that person as a participant until the start of next month.
